Comments on: Count Off! From Margie http://vimtozim.org/2006/11/21/count-off/ Fri, 30 Jul 2010 18:49:30 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.5 by: Susan Henthorn http://vimtozim.org/2006/11/21/count-off/#comment-112 Tue, 05 Dec 2006 23:43:40 +0000 http://vimtozim.org/2006/11/21/count-off/#comment-112 I actually had well over 1,200 emails to deal in my work email box with when I returned. Luckily, I was albe to access my work account from my sister's and spent about 6 hours dealing with the most urgent and whittling the rest down to about 800. Since I was out of vacation days, I needed to spend about 12 hours on work related things between our return and going back to work on Nov. 27. So dealing with email and doing some reading for my upcoming sabbatical helped me clock those hours. That's one reason I don't have the journals transcribed yet, that and a church related crisis that I needed to spend time on as the incoming chair of the Staff Relations Committee. I will try to get at least Journal A transcribed and off to folks via email by the end of the week, if not before. I'll try to get some further photos posted this weekend as well.

Tell us your "long story". I'm curious as to why it took you 4 days to get back to Michigan. Also, post the pictures of Chris with the orphans. I'd like to see them.

Marsha dropped us off in Indianapolis around 6:30 pm and was going to keep driving to Kentucky that night. Today, Christopher went back to school (wearing his green VIMtoZIM polo shirt) and I'm back in the office and fully immersed in dealing with the 652 messages in my email inbox.
